Reset your Mac’s NVRAM settings

NVRAM stands for non-volatile RAM and is basically a functionality that stores in memory settings for display, speakers, primary startup disk etc. Everything even remotely connected with boot process (like your MacBook won’t turning on) can be set back to factory settings during the NVRAM reset.
To flush NVRAM settings:
  1. Shut your Mac down.
  2. Press the Power key.
  3. Wait for your Mac to start loading.
  4. When you hear a startup sound, hold down Cmd + Option + P + R.
  5. Keep pressing the keys until you hear a second startup sound
==================================

Zap your Mac’s SMC settings

SMC is System Management Controller. What it controls is temperature, lights, keyboard, fans, and many other side-processes. According to Mac support forums, resetting SMC helps in 90% of the cases when your Mac’s screen goes black. To perform this trick follow the tips below.
For a MacBook with a non-removable battery:
  1. Shut your Mac down. 
  2. Connect your Mac to a power outlet. 
  3. While your Mac is still shut, Press Shift + Option + Control and Power key at the same time. 
  4. Let go of the keys and boot your Mac again.
